Can they out source VAR as well?
Actually with modern technology VAR could easily be centralised. I know its starting to happen. Having each stadium needing a VAR booth and staff and setup costs is dumb.
You could have a central VAR centre in Sydney for the whole AL and rotate staff on demand. Get FIFA to pay for it. VAR was their idea
I thought VAR was already centralised?, ie the booth for Wellington games is in Sydney. just link the bunker in NRL
